Abstract (en)

A digital waveform oscillator generates digitized waveforms without distortion using a lookup table. The frequencies which may be generated using direct lookup tables at their fundamental table frequencies are increased according to this invention by including multiple cycles of the waveform within a single table. The selection of a table length L and a number of cycles N to be stored in a lookup table is done in a manner to optimize corresponding values of the frequencies to be generated and the sample rate. <IMAGE>
